Publisher's Description

From Kevin Solway:
GE Trans specializes in translating German texts into English, but can also help in translating individual English words into German. With a translation database exceeding 220,000 German words and phrases, including many scientific and technical terms, GE Trans produce draft translations which can be readily polished into a finished translation, or simply used as a reference. You can easily modify entries in the database, or add your own new translations. Edit your text with many formatting commands and maintain the text style and format during translation.

When Brett Kitchens is surfing the German based UseneXT site he subscribes to, he minimizes 'GE Trans' to his tray, and copies and pastes text into it quickly, as needed. Works perfectly. Also, can contribute comments to the site in German when desired by using it.

Cons

Doesn't translate slang or loose German phrases very well, but has all cuss words (lol). Free version truncates large amounts of text. Too expensive, worth $15.

I've been trawling through translators and dictionaries (German-English) for a while now and I've got to say that this one is head over shoulders above the rest. Very easy to use, excellent definitions and rarely has a problem finding your word or phrase.
